Paris Saint-Germain are plotting to bring Serge Aurier back to the club according to local newspaper Le Parisien.

It’s claimed that The Tottenham Hotspur is becoming a main target for PSG, and a return to France is now increasingly likely.

A decision to move for Aurier is described as ‘unanimous’, as sporting director Leonardo and president Nasser Al-Khelaifi both want Aurier back.

Mauricio Pochettino is also keen, having been the one to sign Aurier for Tottenham from PSG back in 2017, paying £23million.

Pochettino did though prefer Kieran Trippier to Aurier for large spells, so him being so keen on a reunion does seem a little surprising.

PSG are desperate to strengthen at right back, and with a permanent deal for loanee Alessandro Florenzi now unlikely, Aurier is wanted.

The 28-year-old has just over a year left on his Spurs contract, and they would surely be tempted to sell before he leaves for nothing in 2022.

Spurs have right back issues of their own, but selling Aurier back to PSG and investing in a new right back may be the best plan for Spurs.
